  • My house keys

    Are you superstitious?

    In Norway it’s superstitious to leave your keys on your kitchen table. It’s something I never do & if my husband leaves them on the table I say something.

    I also never leave the front door open unless I have reason to. I recently cleansed our house with some very powerful sage. As I wanted certain old energy to leave our house & welcome new.

    It’s something I have not done for years but it felt great. I also take my shoes off next to the door when I come home. Are you superstitious about something?

  • Shopping spree

    My favorite place to shop are these environmental brands I’ve worn for years. One is Toad&co & the other is Prana. I could shop there without any problem.

    Of course I only buy what I wear. So I don’t go clothes shopping that often. But I like brands that engage their customers to make smarter choices.

    I think shopping sprees are over, we throw away so many clothes every year & it’s just not worth it. You should be mindful when you purchase something. Will I wear this for more than one season.

  • What do you do?

    What is one question you hate to be asked? Explain.

    As a writer since I was a teenager, I hate this question the most. I’ve had plenty of odd jobs but my passion has always been writing. Being an unemployed writer is ironic as I’m currently looking for work.

    Being asked what I do is one of those questions I can’t stand. I’ve been a site leader for a non-profit, spoken to people in crisis on top of working as a volunteer.

    Being uni educated hasn’t brought the jobs that I thought it would. I’m currently working on my second book; & just about finished the first read through. I’m hopeful that a publisher will want my book.

    What question drives you nuts?
